It tells java not to try and contact the 'screen'. Usually this is needed on UNIX systems that aren't running an XServer (often a web server or the like). If you just want to rasterize SVG documents setting headless true is good. > I tried to use: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] batik-1.6]$ java -jar batik-squiggle.jar > but after several lines of startup, it paused and didn't load.

If you want to interactively view SVG documents you will need to setup X (set your DISPLAY env var to point at an X Windows server) - how to set this up is incredibly off topic for this forum. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
